How to report to OIG

Check the source records and document supported concerns before reporting to the HHS Office of Inspector General. A flag alone is not evidence of wrongdoing. Lead, not proof.

What the patterns mean

Owner cluster

61 providers

The same person or company owns or manages several Medicare providers.

Extreme per-patient billing

52 providers

This provider was paid far more per patient than at least 99% of similar providers in its state that year.

Billing far above peers

35 providers

This provider's Medicare payments are far higher than typical for its provider type and state.

Shared address

23 providers

Several different Medicare providers are enrolled at the exact same street address.

Suite stacking

7 providers

Many providers list different suite or unit numbers at the same building, making it look like separate offices.

Excluded owner

3 providers

An owner or managing person matches the federal exclusion list — the HHS Office of Inspector General's list of people and companies banned from billing Medicare and Medicaid.

New-entity cluster

2 providers

Multiple providers at this address were incorporated very recently, around the same time.

Method and sources

Counts come from the live FraudFinder Watchlist, built from CMS Medicare enrollment, ownership and payment files and the HHS OIG exclusion list (LEIE). Every published lead passes automated cross-checks against the source files, and the data is re-pulled every Monday.
